Also, the fact that my hair looks vaguely short mullet-esque and is the shade - the exact shade, once again - of Ronald MacDonald’s only dawned on me this morning, leaving me with the horrible decision to ponder: do I let Squiggy, he of extreme hair dramatics and weak disposition, fix it, despite the fact that this is his second identical offense? Or do I go somewhere else, risking Squiggy’s eternal ire and potentially damaging clairvoyance and Carrie-like powers? The wrong decision could leave my head a thousand shades of red, either from a pool of blood or a botched color job.

I haven't had greening problems since before I started showering daily (damn puberty), so unless you're a stinky hippy, I think you'll be okay. Well, especially now that you're no longer blonde but red! Rawr.

I had 80% of my head done a shade darker than my natural color (which is a level 7 in terms of blond, 10 being the lightest, so I had it darkened to a 6), and I had level 10 highlights all over the top of it, sliced in. I guess Squiggs was worried that the white-blond would go green. Leah: You wouldn’t even see it in photos.

And then how could he not notice it was a tampon! Used! Does he make this stuff up? I hope you end up liking your hair color more than you did right off the bat.

Sure, why not, auburn is nice, I thought. Until the "unveiling," when my hair was Strawberry Shortcake red. All of it, pink. PINK. Even the other stylists stopped working to gawk, like "wtf did you do to that girl's hair, Ahhn-Hell?!" If you don't look Strawberry Shortcake, or an eggplant, I am sure it is fine. And also, I totally know the too-high-filling terror of which you speak. But when they first give you the filling and ask, "does the bite feel alright?" how the hell are you supposed to know? It's not like you ever thought about how your teeth fit together before, for one thing, and for two, your mouth is all Novacainey and drooly. They should give you some Baked Lays when they ask that question, if they want the real answer. oh, God, this took me right back to a former stylist, a flamboyantly gay Puerto Rican named Angel (“Ahhn-Hell”), who told me on Christmas Eve day he was going to give me a touch of auburn because my blonde was getting a little “brassy.” Sure, why not, auburn is nice, I thought.
